History

The Gories played garage rock stripped to the bone: two guitars, a drummer and no bass at all, with raw, distorted blues riffs and shouted vocals that sounded like a house party recorded on a cheap tape deck. The trio formed in Detroit in 1986 with Mick Collins and Dan Kroha on guitars and vocals and Peggy O'Neill on drums. They were among the first bands of the 1980s garage revival to lean openly on blues, drawing from John Lee Hooker style boogie and primitive rhythm and blues rather than only from sixties punk. Houserockin' (1989), I Know You Fine, But How You Doin' (1990) and Outta Here (1992) captured that clattering, deliberately rough sound. The band broke up in 1992 after a European tour, and its members went on to other projects, Collins most notably with The Dirtbombs. Their influence reached well past their sales, feeding into the Detroit garage scene that came after them. The Gories later reunited for tours in Europe and North America. They are recognised by the missing bass, the trebly guitars and a groove built on stubborn repetition.
